Virtual Quilting Bee Block #2 by Sukie

Today’s block was created by Amy Newbold of Sukie Don’t Ya Know (or Sukie Don’t Yak Now – take your pick ;). I love the block she created and named Oragami Star. The name is perfect! Above is the Happy Go Lucky version.

Important reminder: these blocks will be 8″ finished (that means when it is part of the finished quilt)meaning they will measure 8 1/2″ unfinished (when you have the block pieced, but before it’s part of a finished quilt.)You only need to make 1 block for the quilt we will be making, but you can always make more if you want a bigger finished quilt or multiple quilts. 🙂

I’m so excited to see all the variations that people create. Feel free to share yours on the Virtual Quilting Bee Flickr Group if you like! I have loved seeing all the stars from Sherri’s block two weeks ago.Also, a couple of suggestions for a VQB hashtag: Let’s use #virtualquiltingbee if you’re sharing on Instagram or Twitter!

And don’t forget, our next block tutorial will be in TWO weeks. If you have any questions, be sure to ask. I will answer questions as quickly as I can in the comments.

I&#39;m excited to sew up this block! This virtual quilting bee was just what I needed! Quick question though, is there an Instagram hashtag for the group? I would love to look at what others are doing on Instagram as well as Flickr. Thanks and have a great weekend!

Is there any way to put the tutorial into a pdf to download? The tutorials are wonderfully detailed but really long. Plus being able to check a pdf would be easier than checking a blog post. BTW I love this block! I really like the white in the &quot;Happy Go Lucky&quot; version. I&#39;d love to make a quilt of just these blocks.

Hi Wanda! That&#39;s a great question. We don&#39;t have a PDF for the blocks, but you can create one yourself. There&#39;s a bookmark you can add to your browser at printfriendly.com that will let you make a nice PDF from any web page. Or you can highlight the post, copy, and paste into a World document if that&#39;s easier.
